What better way to show off the glittering power of your 22nd century handheld communications device than with a 1980's ASCII UNIX RPG? Gandreas Software has ported Epyx's seminal early-PC RPG Rogue to the iPhone as a free download, and -- to be fair -- has done a very noble job of bringing the game up to date. Gandreas's version adds tile graphics (and a very smart tilt-mode that morphs the landscape view's ASCII mode ...

For me, roguelike games are an absolute must have on any self-respecting games platform, and you don't get much more roguelike than, well, Rogue. Rejoice, for Rogue has been ported to the iPhone and is available from the App Store right now. Go and play it - it is fun and free. This implementation has both primitive graphics and old-school ASCII modes (just rotate the screen to switch) pinch-zooming and (optional) gesture based commands. If ...

Filed under: News items Let's say that, like most folks, you only have one monitor. Let's also assume that you either prefer to enjoy games in all their full-screen glory, or your one monitor doesn't run at a resolution high enough to make multitasking while running a game in a window practical -- also probably true of most folks. But you're playing World of Warcraft and you want to check Thottbot, or your e-mail. Well, ...

Filed under: Fan stuff, News items, AddOns Behold the power of WoW Insider -- GotGame told us about their browser and social networking service a little while ago, and we were so much more fascinated with the browser part of their app that they split it off. And here it is: Rogue is what they're calling their ingame browser application -- you can download it for free from the site, and after a quick install, ...

Got an email this week from the CEO of Genesis Interactive, which runs GotGame, a social portal for gamers. Asserting that "PC gamers spend a quarter of their time in game waiting for either teammates to log in or games to load," they've developed a browser — called Rogue — that allows you to look at porn surf the web, without leaving your game and potentially missing out on the action. Says Win Betteridge (I ...

Worth giving a try, I suppose. I imagine it just creates a DirectX overlay like Xfire, Steam or Gamecam. As such, none of those will probably cooperate with it. Just an educated guess there.

Most players who care already know what the Tier 7 loot is going to look like. The loot from the retuned Naxxramas - which, by the way, has already been beaten - will be styled after the look from the old Tier 3 of vanilla WoW’s Naxxramas 40. Styled doesn’t mean copied however, with Blizzard confirming that their will be some model upgrades and modifications, as evidenced by the difference in 10-man and 25-man varieties, ...

Thanks WSU.edu and Mark J. Berry Trade Chat and General Chat are certainly odd beasts. I consider Trade Chat to be one of the most mistreated features in World of Warcraft, as it is hardly ever used for its purpose, facilitating the buying and selling of goods. More often than not I simply ignore the channel all together in an attempt to save my intelligence and sanity. General Chat, well, that can be forgiven for ...

Updated. See below: News just in from BrewPublic that Rogue Brewing is going to purchase the Green Dragon and revamp it as a Rogue Taphouse. Wow! Crap! Damn! Those are my emotions right now. I love Rogue, but there is already a Rogue in downtown. There are no other Green Dragons which offer the rotating taps of some great beers. Also, we love having events there because the staff loves us. According to the article, ...

Sweet. Begich leads. Stevens (R) 125,016 Begich (D) 125,019 About 40,000 votes are in from today's batch of absentee, early, and question ballots to be counted today, so we still have another 12,000 or so votes to go before the day is finished. And remember, the districts that will be counted later this week are all Begich districts. While we need to wait for every vote to be counted, chances are we will win this ...

I was around during the initial Scourge Invasion. In fact, I was still playing WoW hours upon hours a day, many of them spent in raids, instances or just farming for gold. Yet, I never really joined in on the fun of the Scourge Invasion. I checked it out, but you wouldn’t find me there day in and day out, in an attempt to stop the Necropoli from taking over. I can’t recall my reasoning, ...

You young ones are spoiled these days, what with your multiple Battlegrounds and Arena matches. Heck, one of the most exciting features coming with Wrath of the Lich King is Lake Wintergrasp. An entire zone dedicated to uninstanced PvP, complete with siege weapons. Back in my day we had to travel across the ocean, uphill, through the snow while dodging bear and lion pies to get our PvP fix. Yea, I am talking about the ...

My fellow blogger Bastosa recently posted a nice article on the grind to level 80. It will be interesting to see how well the 5-man instancing team sticks together. From my previous experiences, running with a group of friends over and over caused us to become a bit competitive. One evening, we called it a night after a few productive hours of grinding XP. Well, we woke up to see that our Mage had stayed ...
